Lyrics
I heard you call my name
I turned but no one was there
All I saw was a lone mourning dove on the wire
She sang a soft low song
Just like a love gone wrong
And I came to my senses
I knew you were gone
I knew you were gone
I thought I saw your face
Clear as the moon above
And your smile wrapped around me, it fit like a glove
But when my vision cleared
And you were nowhere near
Oh I cried out, ?My God, won?t you help me endure
Please help me endure?
A new day dawns
You?re still gone
And I know, I must carry on
I must carry on
I felt you touch my hair
A touch I know so well
So I reached out to find you
I?m reaching still
Coin down a wishing well
Deeper than that I fell
There?s a part of my heart only your love can fill
Only your love can fill
A new day dawns
You?re still gone
And I know, I must carry on
I must carry on
I heard you call my name
I thought I saw your face
I felt you touch my hair
